Make a Real Difference—Every Single Day
Are you passionate about helping people, solving problems, and delivering exceptional service? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same?
We’re looking for a Customer Experience Advisor to join our growing team and play a vital role in supporting families who rely on us. This is more than just a customer service role—it’s your opportunity to take ownership, build trust, and make a meaningful impact.
About The Role
When a family reaches out, they are often facing a challenge that matters deeply to them. In this role, you will act as their advocate and a key point of contact for military families, ensuring their concerns are understood, managed, and resolved with care, urgency, and professionalism.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

This is a high-volume, fast-paced role where you will be handling a mix of inbound and outbound calls, as well as managing shared inboxes. You will balance multiple priorities while keeping customer expectations realistic and informed throughout the process.
You will take ownership of queries through to completion, working to resolve issues efficiently while preventing escalations and complaints. Alongside this, you will use tools such as Excel and internal systems to track progress and maintain accurate records.
What You’ll Need
You will bring strong, proven customer experience, particularly in roles involving regular telephone interaction and managing sensitive or challenging conversations. You are comfortable working under pressure and able to remain calm, professional, and solution-focused at all times.
We are looking for someone who demonstrates stability and commitment, with the ability to work independently using their own initiative. You will be proactive, a self-starter, and willing to learn, with a flexible approach to changing demands.
You are highly organised and capable of multitasking in a demanding environment without compromising quality. You are confident managing expectations and building rapport quickly, even in difficult situations.
Your approach is proactive rather than reactive, and you take pride in seeing tasks through fully while maintaining a strong sense of accountability.
